Commoners' Comedy at The Portland Arms

Event information

Commoners' is Cambridge's most loved comedy club, showcasing the best comedians from across the UK and landing them straight into your lap.

September's Commoners' sees the brilliant Dane Buckley headlining alongside 3 more fantastic comedians.

Dane Buckley is the world’s only Irish, Indian, gay comedian… probably. An award-winning comedian and writer, he delivers his comedy effortlessly with cheeky charm and camp mischief.

Dane burst onto the comedy circuit in 2022, making a name for himself by winning Gong Shows and was a finalist in LGBTQ+ New Comedian of the Year (2022), British Comedian of the Year (2024) and BBC New Comedy Awards (2024).

Whether it’s stories of his early years (Irish mammies, Indian grannies, and rebel priests) or his career in social care (chasing pensioners through Paris or delivering a baby impromptu) audiences across the UK are enjoying Dane’s hilarious and heart-warming tales.

Dane has supported Tom Allen, Rosie Jones, Joanne McNally and Josh Widdicombe on Tour, has been featured on Comedy Central, BBC Three and BBC One, and is a regular on the club and festival circuit.

Dane co-hosts the hugely popular podcast Welcome to Hell which debuted in the top 10 charts of both Apple and Spotify. Together with Daniel Foxx, the Infernal Aunties judge outrageous confessions, celebrate the salacious and revel in a good old-fashioned gossip.
